In this authoritative account of the critical turning points of the Russian campaign the authors present the German and Soviet forces initial confrontation on the approaches to Moscow, Leningrad, and Rostov. The late-1941 battles produced the first major German setbacks of the war and gave the Soviet troops their first tastes of success, but later, the pendulum swung to the German side, as, during the summer of 1942, their armies raced across the Ukraine and into the Caucasus. The book covers operations from the defeat at the gates of Moscow to the surrender of the 6th Army at Stalingrad and includes the campaign to take Crimea and Sebastopol, the beginnings of the partisan movement, the campaign into the Kuban and Caucasus and the prolonged battle for Stalingrad itself.

Contrary to popular misconception, the Germans' Ardennes Offensive of December 1944 was not the last German offensive in the West, it was Operation 'Nordwind' launched on the last New Year's Eve of World War II. The offensive ultimately involved two army groups, two field armies, five corps, and 15 divisions of the Wehrmacht's last, dwindling reserves. The battle for Wingen-sur-Moder involved seasoned American forces (elements of the ‘Thunderbirds’ 45th Infantry Division), completely green American units (‘Trailblazers’ of the 70th Infantry Division), and German units ranging from hastily-trained Volks-Grenadiers to previously undefeated Gebirgsjäger of SS-NORD.

The Canadian Invasion of Sicily, July 10, 1943. Aboard more than two thousand ships, the largest armada in history, two great Allied Armies made ready to invade Sicily. Operation Husky was the first step towards winning a toehold in fascist occupied Europe. Among the invaders were 20,000 troops of the 1st Canadian Infantry Division and 1st Canadian Tank Brigade. They were about to embark on their first ever combat. Over the next twenty-eight days, the Canadians and the other Allied troops carved a path through rugged land despite fierce German opposition.
